Ritson Road GO Station
Railway station in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
Ritson Road GO Station is a planned GO Transit train station to be built by Metrolinx in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada as part of the approved expansion of train service on the Lakeshore East line to Bowmanville.[3] It will be built on the south side of an existing freight rail line owned by Canadian Pacific Railway, on a section of land formerly occupied by Ontario Malleable Iron Company until 1977 and later by Knob Hill Farms (1980 to 2000) at 500 Howard Street in downtown Oshawa.[4]
In 2011, Metrolinx planned to abandon service at its existing Oshawa GO Station once the expansion was completed; thus, at that time, the Ritson Road location would have become the new Oshawa GO Station.[5] However, by 2022, Metrolinx decided to continue to serve the existing Oshawa GO Station and chose the name of Ritson Road for the planned station.[6][1]
